Over eight years since its 2015 release,Fallout 4, like its predecessors, remains an evergreen gaming experience easily recommended to even cursory fans of RPGs in post-apocalyptic settings. With multiple expansions bolstering the experience, an inspired and creative modding community, and a player-choice-driven narrative that includes multiple far-flung endings, it is no wonder thatFallout 4is still enjoyed by countless fans in 2023.

Reddit user sirbalz shared their latestcreation withinFallout 4to the amazement of fans online. Taking over a year to complete, sirbalz created an entire city within the buildable plots thatFallout 4grants to players to construct, customize, and protect throughout the course of the game. The densely populated and immaculately detailed creation is an inspiration to the settlement-building community inFallout 4, with ingenuity in their usage of verticality and spacing, constructing a city that looks believably lived-in. Using the conquest mod to extend their plot, sirbalz was able to make their vision of a crowded thoroughfare inFallout 4a reality.
WhileFallout 76may entice certain players looking to gather resources to build their own post-apocalyptic shelter within theFalloutuniverse, some, like sirbalz, never left the comfort ofFallout 4. Despite issues regarding clunkiness in its UI and the technical limitations that come with being an almost decade-old game, there is a definite charm to taking in refugee NPCs and giving them a metropolis to settle down in. Whether Bethesda intends to iterate upon the settlement-building systemwhenFallout 5finally comes outis unknown, but many fans are hopeful that between the lessons learned withFallout 4andFallout 76,the ability to construct habitations for the denizens of its irradiated world will be fine-tuned by the time the game is announced.
Builds like sirbalz emphasize the dedication and passion that gamers can possess when a game truly speaks to them. Anything that takes as long astheirFallout 4citydid to create is worthy of all the admiration and praise that is heaped onto it.
Fallout 4is available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One, with PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions coming in 2023.
